It’s the second time he’s gone cold Twitter. The first came after his now famous dustup with American Airlines. But Baldwin’s Twitter decision could be a preemptive strike against fallout from his latest vitriolic interview.

The Emmy winner shared some rather violent fantasies about two thorns in his side during a new Q&A with Vanity Fair:

He outlined vivid fantasies of the gruesome ways in which he might have murdered his wife’s lawyer (“with a baseball bat”) and TMZ honcho Harvey Levin, whose TMZ site posted the embarrassing voicemail Baldwin left for his daughter. “I wanted to stick a knife in him and gut him and kill him and I wanted him to die breathing his last breath looking into my eyes.”

To be fair to Baldwin, it’s tough to package all that hate in under 140 characters.
